A particular brand of Irish snuff is called High Toast. This relates to an unfortunate / fortunate accident when the snuff was ‘cooked’ for too long and the resulting snuff was found to be delicious!

Other stories related it’s discovery to a fire at a tobacco warehouse and the ‘smoked’ tobacco was deemed to be useless for anything but snuff.
